Always heard the 744 might end up in South America one of these days too.

She called me a supreme dork when I explained my screenname.
BTW, we don't say 80 knots clamp anymore. Thrust normal. What's normal? That's in the eye of the beholder.

The membership needs to decide if they would want to do that.
This just dawned on me.
If the whole "what are you willing to give up?" question about extensions?
We're Delta pilots, we don't do extensions.
But that said, the way it comes across is that the pot is "THIS" big, and that's it. C2012 the pot will be the same size, maybe 2% higher. So you want higher pay rates, you've got to take it from somewhere else in the pot. That's what we're hearing when that's asked. But I haven't heard it asked since the "I'm willing to give up ALPA" retort came around.
